Massive, 10.2" Priscacara Fossil Fish - World Class Specimen!

At 10.2" long this is an absolutely massive specimen of Priscacara serrata from the Green River Formation of Wyoming. This is one of the more uncommon fish found in the quarries. It was collected this past summer at the Fossil Lake Safari Quarry near Kemmerer. It has an impressive amount of relief with many of the spines and ribs popping out from the rock. This is one of the nicest, large examples I've seen of the species.

The limestone was originally fractured, so there are several repaired cracks through the rock and fish and it has been backed with hardie board for stability. This also makes it easy to install mounting hardware to hang the specimen on a wall.
